service provider.

Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
•
Domain ID– An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
•
MVR6 Status – When MVR6 is enabled on the switch, any multicast data associated with an
MVR6 group is sent from all designated source ports, to all receiver ports that have registered
to receive data from that multicast group. (Default: Disabled)
•
MVR6 VLAN – Identifier of the VLAN that serves as the channel for streaming multicast
services using MVR6. MVR6 source ports should be configured as members of the MVR6 VLAN
(see
“Adding Static Members to VLANs”
on page 724), but MVR6 receiver ports should not be
manually configured as members of this VLAN. (Default: 1)
•
MVR6 Running Status – Indicates whether or not all necessary conditions in the MVR6
environment are satisfied. Running status is Active as long as MVR6 is enabled, the specified
MVR6 VLAN exists, and a source port with a valid link has been configured (see
•
MVR6 Current Learned Groups – The number of MVR6 groups currently assigned to this
domain.
•
Upstream Source IPv6 – The source IPv6 address assigned to all MVR6 control packets sent
upstream on the specified domain. This parameter must be a full IPv6 address including the
network prefix and host address bits. By default, all MVR6 reports sent upstream use a null
source IP address.
All IPv6 addresses must be according to RFC 2373 “IPv6 Addressing Architecture,” using 8
colon-separated 16-bit hexadecimal values. One double colon may be used in the address to
indicate the appropriate number of zeros required to fill the undefined fields. (Note that the IP
address ff02::X is reserved.)
